Luck with Putting Yourself into Labor?

ok, need to have this baby before my doc leaves town for a conference next week. He is solo in his practice and the only one in my county that even entertains the idea of a VBAC (which I am determined to have), so he is it. I am 39 weeks along, so it shouldn't be too long now, I would just prefer it happen 'naturally' prior to his departure next week. This is my 5th (1st 3 were easy vaginal, last one was c-section due to a complete placenta previa) and with a vbac, inducing is not favorable. any ideas or things that have worked for you?...

Guilt over Son's Premature Birth

Hi ladies, I'm new to this site and in need of an honest opinion about my son's birth. My son was born a few months ago and he was born at 31 weeks and I feel like it was all my fault. When I was about 28 weeks along I went to the bathroom and when I stood up I felt a drip go down my leg. I called my OB and they were booked that day (it was about 3pm) and told me to go to a local hospital OB triage. During that visit they did a "dry specimen" where they cannot use any lubricant and they put the speculum inside and swabbed my uterus...

13 Month Old Wakes up with Soaked Diaper and Wet Pajamas Almost Every Morning!

My 13 month old is waking up almost every morning - sometimes too early - wet from the top of his diaper up his stomach. His diaper is completely soaked, too. We were using Pampers cruisers size 3, so I just moved up to size 4 because I thought a bigger diaper would help, but he's still leaking. He's average weight(23 lbs) but tall(33 inches) - not sure if that makes any difference with diapers. His bed time routine is bath, pajamas, books with a small cup of milk, brush teeth, and off to bed, so he has a new diaper within 30 minutes of...
